I think people need to make a distinction between "patterning" a 1 or 2 year old buck and the occasional 3 year old on one hand, and 4, 5 or 6 year old bucks on the other.
At 4 they basically aren't patternable as they are 99% nocturnal - even during the rut.
I know a wise ole sagey man down in Ramer who had a saying about these fully mature bucks:
"They will pattern YOU before you pattern them." A mature bucks pattern is that he doesn't have a pattern after the velvet comes off. I'd guess that 70% of the mature bucks I've seen, the first time I saw them was the only time saw them
